(Aug. 2, 2018) Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker has ordered that the United States flag and the commonwealth flag be lowered to half-staff at all state buildings today in honor of Sgt. John Brady of Taunton, who was killed in Germany Nov. 2, 1944, and whose remains have been returned and will be interred today.

This gubernatorial order applies to the main or administration building of each public institution of the commonwealth, e.g. town and city halls; other state-owned or state-controlled buildings; and all state military installations.
